John,

"Stealth" VFP sessions at TechEd. Sell VFP by "stealth".

This could become a habit we don't need! Soon I'll start feeling like those perverts roaming the ???? (streets, internet, whatever)!

This is a bad idea which can only have negative consequences.

Frankly, it's up to MS to either start doing a serious job of marketing VFP and making it clear that VFP is a full partner/component of VS or sell VFP for a dollar to a reputable development house.

We have tons of serious and well-meaning people here on UT, but in the end we all have a living to make and we all have to live with ourselves.

MS clearly has not lived up to its end of the bargain, and it is high time that it did, or took the honourable alternative.
